Your Dream AVS
What is your dream AVS, that you could never build but want to!

Mine is a moving and working copy of the Lament Configuration from Hellraiser, Made of Superscopes. I wish itd move and transform like that cube could, Oh the Awesomeness! :D

My dream avs...
Now let's see...

I would like to use multiple presets in one single avs preset without a mass framerate loss and able to switch between them randomly by fading in&out, if this fading effect could be configured with a dm it would totally kick ass.

That's my dream...


7th February 2003 16:59 UTC

My dream is a totally randomly generated urban jungle scene, w/cars and pedestrians and everything...


7th February 2003 21:26 UTC

My dream AVS is a completely music-synched dance room complete with AVS projectors, DJ's or bands and many people gettin' jiggy with it. And of course it has to run at 75FPS minimum.


7th February 2003 22:18 UTC

I agree with Atero, a city preset would be awesome...


7th February 2003 23:29 UTC

I want a computer factory...
Inside look that is...
Wireframes are all I needed...

But backing off the hoping scale a bit, a pontifex/bridgebuilder preset will work pretty nicely on me...

Backing off more : Mr. Happy doing breakdancing moves =P

what does pontifex mean:?


8th February 2003 12:30 UTC

Pontifex is a game where you build bridges out of framework constructions. The simulation is very realistic and with practice you can make some really awesome things :).

The only bad thing is that the levels in it are always geared toward one solution and often don't give you enough freedom to try out some new things. But it's pretty powerful and with patience you can do awesome things :)

(insane 8-lane highway bridge attached :cool: )

sounds like rollercoaster tycoon :rolleyes:

Except pontifex2 is more fun. I made a bridge with a hole in it once. The train fell through the hole, hit the boat, the boat slowly tipped and went sideways, then the boat hit the support of the bridge, then BOOM the bridge collapses :D


9th February 2003 08:42 UTC

You're my kinda guy, Zeven :D

btw nice bridge unconed, wish i could figure out the controls so i could build shit like that :p


9th February 2003 08:53 UTC

Dream AVS huh? A somewhat realistic looking frog the could jump and land on each beat.


9th February 2003 10:51 UTC

Seems to be nice game. But costs like hell, doesnt it?


9th February 2003 15:55 UTC

Nope, just $20 (That's like climbing mt. Everest for me though...)


9th February 2003 21:13 UTC

My dream AVS preset would be one with a huge subwoofer vibrating along the music :) Some circle scopes could do a 3d rotation around it and change the color of the subwoofer...Antialiasing is a must have in this preset ;)


9th February 2003 21:50 UTC

Subwoofers have been modelled before. Nothing great that I've seen, though. The Winamp3 skin MMD3 has a nice subwoofer vis.


10th February 2003 05:38 UTC

Some good fractals would be nice - I saw a music dvd with just kaliedescopic transitions that beat reacted - interesting.


10th February 2003 06:02 UTC

Yeah the best part about Pontifex is when the really big bridges collapse :D


12th February 2003 01:40 UTC

Fractals have been done before with a Dynamic Movment: UnConeD'sWhacko AVS I and Atero'sThe Forward Flow 2

Also, VisFrac , an APE for can do fractals


12th February 2003 01:57 UTC

Yes, but there are many more fractals to be done. These have just been the mandelbrot and julia sets(I believe this is it, no?). There are many more interesting fractals that have yet to be implemented in AVS.


12th February 2003 03:12 UTC

AVS-King did powerswitching Julia (At least what I think it is - Gemstone, Focus II), Double Julia, Queen of Hearts, Sierpinski, Sierpinski-carpet-ish fractal (Which squares between the 9 squares in division to be blackened out randomized every beat). (He's a most-time fractal artist, don't blame him)

El-Vis did Dragon IFS, SSC-Rendered Julia.

Atero did SSC-Rendered Julia (With Fractal-program style coloring...), Leaf IFS, and word IFS.

There are others, but g2g (Dammit)


12th February 2003 03:23 UTC

Yeah, I forgot about AVS-king. I haven't looked at his stuff in a long time.
Another preset I would like to see is a morphing crop-circles preset with 3-D cropcircles(camera moves around the morphing crop circles kinda like a helicopter and zooms in and out on crop-circles.


12th February 2003 05:04 UTC

crop circles
Anubis - Ive got a nice crop circle font. you might enjoy a text render maybe?


12th February 2003 08:28 UTC

Jheriko made a scanliner SSC mandelbrot fractal, and I dynamicized it with a grid SSC renderer and a movement.


12th February 2003 19:01 UTC

Scanning fractals aren't really that hard to do, they're just slow as f*** if you want any decent quality...


12th February 2003 20:11 UTC

Crop circles
Here's a quick crop circles thingy... the patterns aren't too special, but you can code your own scopes for it.

Noise plus vertical convolution ops is used to fake grain stalks.

I guess it would look cooler with interlacing, noise and bad-tv-like bands to enhance the X-Files-factor :cool:.


12th February 2003 21:11 UTC

Decent preset UnConeD. I was looking for a bit more 3-D feel, but very nice for a quickly made preset.


12th February 2003 23:45 UTC

Just thought of another dream AVS - Something like Wildtanget's dancing chicks - without the spyware.


13th February 2003 06:41 UTC

This one has a more 3D feel to the grain.


13th February 2003 12:41 UTC

Nice again UnConeD.


13th February 2003 16:38 UTC

I like those UnConeD, Looks coool


13th February 2003 16:58 UTC

I made a Remix.. im bad at remixing so.. don't be too harsh...:weird: :igor:


13th February 2003 19:39 UTC

yet another preset that could, with a little work, be worthy of Whacko VII...But no, that'll never happen... *hint, hint*


13th February 2003 20:51 UTC

I think it's going to happen. UCD is about 1/4 of the way to a new pack already with good presets he has posted. Just watch, he will return. AVS is just too addictive.

i don't need wt:s chick's, i've got unconed's mister happy (original + kylie version) & tuggummi's tanssiva mies 2, their dancing is sexy is enough me :P

14th February 2003 15:55 UTC

Can i see those?
I don't have those presets... would you mind putting all of them (except the original) on here? :D


14th February 2003 20:02 UTC

Use the forum search :rolleyes:


18th February 2003 13:09 UTC

My dream AVS is a tunnel preset, somethin like my mole hole just with "real tubular(dunno how to say it otherwise)" deformation and objects flying out of the walls (spikes, metal jaws and stuff) like some video game.


18th February 2003 20:02 UTC

like sonique's rabbit hole vis, but solid and with more shtuff?


18th February 2003 20:54 UTC

Or like monkey but with objects in it?


27th February 2003 23:43 UTC

check the videos!


28th February 2003 06:19 UTC

Heheh, those are pretty fucking cool! Projecting a microscope view with what ever liquids you used is kinda cool idea, i have never seen such thing before! That would be cool in avs only if it would be possible to view it with a decent framerate in atleast 800x600... I guess we will have to wait for that day a loong time :rolleyes:


3rd March 2003 12:03 UTC

Not like rabbit hole because I want more obvious and faster turns, thats what I meant with that tubular deformation thing. Damn I cant find a way to tell you what I mean.

If you had a curve in the midlle of the tunnel made out of circles,
all the circles would be perpendicular to the curve in the middle.



Monkey? havent seen that one.
